Suggestions for a HS student with confusing stats [GA resident, 3.5 GPA, 32 ACT (33 super score), public policy or international affairs]

So budget does matter:

  1. You don’t want to be in debt

  2. You can only borrow $5500 your first year and $27K over four years.

You have a nice portfolio. You should see if Odyssey of the Mind has scholarships. That’s impressive.

Why do you say your stats are confusing? Let me add - an upward trend is great but one can’t assume it’s because of a plan or medication - and it happened late so I don’t think it sways anything but every AO at every school is different and I can’t say how they’d see it.

What do you seek in a college? UGA is unlikely - but is wonderful for IR? But it’s huge. Do you want large or small, rural, urban…any location, etc.? Tell us more - what you desire.

What is the true budget - how much you have each year - because loans aren’t an option (thank goodness - other than the $5500.
